In the June 2010 signed Georgia Governor, Sonny Perdue, into law a Bill, the driver and front passenger in the pickup trucks, wear seat belts would require.

Until then, you had must bear Georgia only in the front seats of cars, vans and SUVs safety belts. The reason that pickups had not in the safety belt law before this time was, because rural legislators felt that it inconvenient for farmers and agricultural workers, too often that - and their work truck to get. Also, she said that it so little traffic on farm roads, that the risk of a collision, was too low, a problem.   This change of law redefining "Cars" set pickup trucks was predicted to 21 lives, to save 300 injuries, and about 30 million $ in the hospital expenses a year.

It is hard to believe, that the State passengers in a pickup truck drive on any road in Georgia to drive without this protection would have allowed critical. This applies since around 48 percent of the region in particular, fatal car crashes that occurred involved unbelted pickup-truck drivers on highways.

At the front of a pickup truck is not the only place which can be dangerous. Riding on the back of a pickup truck should result in more serious injury or even death. With summer just around the corner it is not uncommon that people who are traveling with friends to passengers in the back of their trucks drive.

Unfortunately, pickup beds were designed for hauling equipment and cargo instead of people. It seat belts in the rear are no restrictions of a pickup truck, and it is for a passenger seats or protection. The most pickup trucks with passengers have no cover or shell, which would provide only nominal protection in any case also riding in the back.

In the event of a collision people in the back of raised a pickup will most likely by the truck. This usually resulted in serious injuries and possibly death. If the pickup about flips, then chances are that passengers in the back are thrown or crushed.

According to a study by one-third of all people who a pickup truck riding lost their lives in the back of killed, although the vehicle they were riding were strike not another vehicle.  Some of the reasons, passengers are ejected from the back of the truck, are: the driver hits a bump or a Kandare.Der driver hits a pothole in the Straße.Der driver Turns.Der driver makes sudden sharp makes sudden Haltestellen.Der driver overturn unexpectedly.A passenger is good on the bike or frame of the truck to Reiten.Ein passenger is in the back of the truck to get up.

According to the US Department of transportation to protect passengers offer insufficient protection against injury covered with camper shells cargo areas. 14 Percent of the cargo area car accident deaths occurred in covered pickup cargo areas. Although the passengers on the front of the pickup truck receive more protection due to mandated seat belt use, the passengers on the back of pickup trucks are practically no protection for Georgia auto accident badly injured or wrongful death provided.
